Hi. Can one of you please provide examples of edits that you want to prevent? What edits would you like to stop that you believe adding a CAPTCHA will prevent? Please provide as many examples as you would like. The more examples you can provide, the better feedback you can get, I think. There are a number of developers actively watching this bug report. :-) I think we should focus on the types of edits you want to prevent (the problem) rather than focusing on adding a CAPTCHA (a proposed solution). And for what it's worth, a wiki can easily disable or deter edits by anonymous users by using [[w:pt:MediaWiki:Titleblacklist]] or [[w:pt:Special:AbuseFilter]]. Though you can't use the AbuseFilter to force a CAPTCHA (yet: bug 18110). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
